Stale procedures?

I'll start off by saying I'm primarily an application developer and only a duffer as a DBA, so I hope this isn't too stupid a question.

Consider the following situation:

UserA has a bunch of tables and several stored procedures that add data to those tables. There are public synonyms to every object owned by UserA.

UserB connects to Oracle and starts repeatedly calling one of UserA's procs. What this proc does is shove a bunch of raw data into one of the UserA tables and then call several utility functions to massage it and put it into other places. We'll call it InsertionBottleneck.

UserA replaces one of the utility procs used by InsertionBottleneck and recompiles everything that's gone invalid.

What we see now is that while the InsertionBottleneck function continues to populate the raw data table, the utility function no longer seems to be working. This will continue to be the case until and unless UserB breaks and reestablishes their connection.

What I'm asking is: Is there a way to get things working again that's less drastic than breaking UserB's connection?

Thanks in advance for any help.
